This k-type thermocouple wire can be used to make your own Type K thermocouple for a wide range of applications, or to make your own Type k extension wire. K-type thermocouples are made from chromel / alumel wire, this K-type wire is made to standard K-type thermocouple specification. The thermocouple wire has a double fiberglass insulation, with the inner insulation color coded to ANSI K-type colors, which are yellow for + and red for -. It is sold in 10 yard (30 ft) spools.

I bought this in mid 2018 for a project I never finished. I recently needed a long thermocouple and I knew I had this wire somewhere. I tig weld a bead on one end and attached a plug to the other. It agrees with my fluke thermocouple, so it's good enough for my purposes.

Poor weld on junction. Many units had shorts between junction and insulation.
